In today’s sermon, Apostle Alfred Williams brings the Holy Ghost Convention to a close by reminding believers that receiving the Holy Spirit is not the end of the journey, but the beginning of a life of spiritual power, revelation and obedience. Drawing from Matthew 28:19–20, Joel 2:28, Acts 1:8, Acts 2 and 1 Corinthians 14, he teaches on the gifts of tongues and prophecy, emphasising that prophecy brings strengthening, encouragement and comfort to the Church. He challenges believers to cultivate a daily relationship with God through prayer, the Word and fasting, creating a spiritual environment in which the Holy Spirit can reveal mysteries and provide direction for life.
Apostle then teaches on three dimensions of the prophetic—prophetic declaration, prophetic utterance and prophetic office—and uses the lives of Elijah and Elisha to demonstrate the authority available to those who know God and stand confidently upon His Word. The sermon closes with a powerful call to recognise the authority given to every believer through Christ, guard the words of our mouths, deepen our relationship with the Holy Spirit and live boldly as children of God.
